Colorado: federal court OKs redistricting plan

AP reports: A federal court has thrown out the last remaining challenge to Colorado's congressional redistricting plan, saying the state Supreme Court resolved the case when it upheld a plan backed by Democrats.

Republican Party officials said today they expect to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

The ruling, handed down Wednesday and made available today, is a setback for the GOP, which has been seeking to overturn the state's congressional district map for two years. -- DenverPost.com - LOCAL NEWS
